Clomid to Femara with iui support

[FutureBabyG]

Mkwalsh- I praise you for being so strong cutting out a bad habit. I never drank coffee but can't imagine the willpower it takes to stop drinking it.

 

[momofadane]

mk - Yes, I would die with no coffee and sugar!! That is some serious willpower

AFM- Just got done with my IUI. Six follicles and 17mil sperm post wash. FX this is our cycle.

Fx momofadane those are good #s.
AfM took the last clomid today and waiting to go in Friday for u/s to see how many follies grew. Trying to stay positive but I'm starting to feel like it won't work....my dad said that maybe I just can't have kids and that kind of bummed me. I know he didn't mean it in a bad way but hearing it sure hurts.

Feeling some twinges in my lower belly. Praying it means something. I've been getting so discouraged after reading posts of women undergoing their 3rd/4th IUI with 12-15 million washed sperm count. Here I am after a messy 1.5 million washed sperm count praying for a BFP.

Ttc74 I'm sure everything is going to be fine it only takes one of those sperm to make it don't be discouraged. I was told 5 years ago that I have bilateral blocked tube s and that I will never become pregnant again last October I was in really bad pain went to the hospital they told me I was pregnant ended in miscarriage sad yes but gave me hope again had a hsg done and both tubes are open and look great mericals happen chin up u will get your bfn

That is awesome! I only had one follie with no IUI, it just takes 1 eggie and 1 sperm! You got this!!

You can totally have kids!! Sending lots of love and positive vibes your way!

1.5 million is amazing still...you've got this!! Did you test again to compare the line this am?

yes, don't be discouraged. This is why IUI's are successful as many people do have low sperm. I know someone last month that got pregnant with an IUI and 1mil sperm. Its just a numbers game, and takes one little guy!

Just got my progesterone levels back from Dr. It's a nice 64.6

 

[momwannabe81]

Nice Ashmom. Fx
ttc that temp drop looks promising. Implantation maybe ;-) fx
ty tag for the positive vibe

 

[TTC74]

I did test again this morning. I'm now negative on both FRER and wondfo. There is still a super SUPER faint line on the surepredict 10 mIU.

I had my progesterone test this morning. So, I should be getting those results this afternoon. Fx for a nice high number.

That's awesome! Now don't test until 10 dpo. If implantation happens around now...you could get a faint BFP by 10 dpo. My BFP 9dpo is anomaly! Doesn't happen often but for this pregnancy I had an ever so faint BFP at 10dpo.

 

[TTC74]

Ugh! My progesterone was only 14.5. I don't care for that.

 

[tag74]

I think that's still good no? My progesterone was 15.1 during a natural cycle and they said they like to see it above 10. Did they give you a range?

 

[ashmom]

I think above 10 is correct

 

[TTC74]

Yes. They just called me back to give me some reassurance. Apparently, some docs are comfortable with progesterone in the high single digits for natural cycles. So, she said anything above 10 in a medicated cycle is great and that we don't see any higher rates of pregnancy, miscarriage, etc. regardless of how much higher it is than that.

Having said that, she also said that we need to schedule a new SA for DH and have a consult regarding that before they will do anything else with me if I didn't get preggers with his super low count. So, we're in the midst of scheduling that now.

 

[TTC74]

8 DPO BFN. Shocking I know.

On a positive note, my temp is on the way back up. Hopefully it will keep climbing.

 

[tag74]

Test 10 dpo. Maybe yesterday was your implantation dip.

 

[mkwalsh]

Any news from anyone??? I feel like I'm living vicariously through you ladies and your two week wait and I'm getting anxious for some news!

Still no coffee over here but I feel like I'm starting to not feel as tired from quitting finally. Got my folly scan tomorrow and hoping there's at least one on my good side that we can work with. My bad side is usually the dominant one but last cycle I had two good and one smaller on the good side so here's hoping!

 

[momofadane]

Hey ladies! How is everyone doing?
I had my first meltdown yesterday after 6 month of TTC and learning this whole time has been a wasted. I have hypothyroid and found out my medication is too strong and now I am extremely Hyper, not allowing me to conceive. On a plus side it should be a quick fix. On the other hand my poor DH is miserable off his testosterone meds and wants to get back on. Which means sperm count drops to zero = no more babies for us. I am hoping he can hold off a little longer, he really wants another one so I am hoping it won't take us long. I am currently 4DPIUI, however I know this too will be a BFN.

 

[TTC74]

My chart looks fantastic for 10 DPO but sadly, I had BFNs this morning on a FRER, wondfo, and surepredict. Hopefully, it's just still early but I'm growing more and more impatient and discouraged by the day.
